After over 3 months of total, comprehensive and indefinite strike over the unmet demands from 2009 up to 2013 by the Government, the Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Universities (SSANU), Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo chapter yesterday 10th of September, 2014 said that after several deliberations and letters to the state Government band university management, SSANU members are yet to be paid their salaries.
"It is against the Labour law for a worker's salaries to be withheld within two months of embarking on strike. It is simply a means of victimization" said Mr. Saheed Oseni, Chairman of the Union.
Haven written several letters to Governor Babatunde Fashola, met with appropriate authorities on the issues but had not received positive response so far.
Mr Oseni said the Union was planning to ground activities in the institution soon. If the salaries were not paid, as they would not forfeit their entitlement.
'When two elephants are fighting the grass suffers' so they say, for the sake of our dear Nigerian students please all concerned authorities should please respond as we don't want to go on an indefinite or definite strike any more.
